  • In 2022, over 100,000 Californians moved to Texas.
    We've been in Texas for a couple of years now and I wonder how everyone's holding up.
    In this video, I'll watch Californians who left for Texas share their thoughts one year later and see if I agree with them or if my experiences are widely different.

    I moved in 2019. I owned a solar company. I missed the weather, lack of mosquitos (outdoor activities were much easier to enjoy) but yes I struggled in California. But being in the tech industry, trying to make it in Texas was much more difficult. The significant difference in income was tough. There is far less to do. But the freedom was much greater. People are much nicer, friendly and considerate in Texas.

      I felt like there were more activities (in Dallas) vs the Bay Area and things are definitely cheaper. People are definitely friendlier in Texas than Cali

    I did the opposite. I moved from Massachusetts to California in 2021.
    I am happy and grateful. My salary went up from $45/hour to $110/hour.
    From annual salary $101000 to $275000.
    Yes taxes in California is high but still i save more money. I live a humble and simple life.
    Whenever someone says that people are leaving California, i usually respond that “just let them leave”.
    I support the move to leave California. Let people leave California. Respect them.

    Hi, I’m very interested in investing in real estate but given my current finial situation I am unable to buy a property any time soon. I was wondering if becoming a real estate agent first would be worth it to learn about the market, although the state I live in is not the state I would want to invest in .

    • @seanlovesrealestate
      @seanlovesrealestate  4 місяці тому

      I think being a real estate agent is a very different skillset from being an investor, but it is a good way to make money if your current job prospects are limited (i.e. you're working at a job with a limited income ceiling). As an agent, you'll learn more about sales and ethics more-so than how to analyze a deal.

    Property tax in Texas is ridiculous and the high sales tax. Wait until real estate becomes unaffordable across the state and more dems move to texas then it will be Cali all over again. Despite that I fucking love Texas.
